Milwaukee bike plan needs your support.

Milwaukee by Bike, the city of Milwaukee's 2010 Bicycle Master Plan, would add more than 200 miles of new bicycle facilities in the city. The plan will be reviewed by the Public Safety committee on Thursday, September 16 at 9:00AM in Room 301-B of City Hall. It is then scheduled for a Common Council vote on September 21.

If you live or bike in Milwaukee, please attend the Public Safety meeting to voice your support for this plan. You can also show your support by emailing, writing or calling your alder person and telling them that Milwaukee by Bike is good for Milwaukee, Talking points are available here and a sample letter/email for your alder person is available here. You can read the complete plan at www.milwaukeeplan.bfw.org.
